IF YOU CAN'T GET IN A GOOD PAPER, THE NEXT BEST THING IS AN ON TIME PAPER.

OTHERWISE, TALK TO YOUR TEACHER. EXPLAIN YOUR REASONS (I'M ASSUMING YOU HAVE SOME) AND TALK TO THEM ABOUT HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE THIS SITUATION AND MAYBE RESOLVE IT.

MOST TEACHERS WILL BE HAPPY THAT YOU TOLD THEM THAT YOU ARE STRUGGLING, AND WANT TO HELP YOU OUT.

YOU CAN DO THIS.

EVEN IF YOU CAN'T DO THIS? IT WON'T BE THE END OF THE WORLD. YOU CAN STILL HAND IN A LATE PAPER. OR YOU CAN NOT DO THE PAPER AT ALL. YOU CAN EVEN FLUNK OUT. THESE ARE ALL PERFECTLY FINE OPTIONS, YOU WILL STILL BE SAFE, YOU WILL STILL BE LOVED.
